Alana’s infatuation with food began on the deck of her childhood home in Mildura, Victoria. Overlooking local vineyards, her family gathered for feasts made with love (and a sprinkle of Murray River salt!), the happy foundation of a life-long appreciation for fine food. A move north to the Sunshine State – and Alana’s love of food, culture and lifestyle has continued to flourish. Alana is a familiar face on WEEKENDER Sundays at 5.30pm on 7. We suggest the following recipe options for blending the Brismark family with WEEKENDER.
